is there any alternatives to auto refresh

[Michael Ni <mi...@hotmail.com>]

hi,

im trying to implement this online game.  currently my only solution to this 
is having the browser auto refresh the database through my javabeans.  what 
are my alternatives?  i only want to keep refreshing a bits of information, 
not the whole jsp page.  must i research into java applets?

also, is there anyway a user or "player" can read information off other 
users?  meaning lets say there is someone named bob in arizona and someone 
named joe in california.  Both are requesting from my server making 
instances of beans.  is there anyway they can detect the beans that the 
other person has made an instance of?

mike
